The insurance industry is governed by specific rules, both from both regulatory and substantive law perspectives. Knowledge of these rules is essential for understanding a client’s case and advising in this area of law. Our lawyers have such knowledge and far-reaching experience. We have been deeply immersed in numerous disputes in the insurance sector in various industries. We also handle the full life cycle of D&O insurances, whether as counsel for the primary insurer or the corporate client. We also act for directors and officers who might require separate counsel.

In the reinsurance sector, we have acted in arbitration and litigation for insurers, reinsurers and retrocessionaires particularly regarding coverage disputes.
